This is a beautiful sunrise! I love the pink color of the sky and the purple color of the mountains. The pink sky reflected in the water is lovely too. Great entry for the contest! Best of luck!

Nice colorful capture. The angle of the shot of the colorful sky view, hilly terrain and water reflection is great. The clarity is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

Very good entry for the contest. Lovely scene captured showing the rising sun casting its pink glow in the sky, reflecting in the water. The silhouettes of the trees and shrubs and mountains create excellent contrast. Very good lighting and focus. Excellent composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

The pink sky is stunning and the dark foreground anchors the composition very well. A beautiful scene that should be a strong contender in the contest. Best of luck in the voting.

Another beauty form Namibia! The river, overhung by a pink morning mist looks like flowing wine! My sincere admiration as usual! I expect you will do well in the contest! Daphne Oberon

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
A beautiful picture of this pink predawn the rising sun colouring the sky a soft pink that is then reflected on the river & turning the distant hills that in daylight will be blue are now bathed in the soft pink of dawn. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Good luck in the contest.
Susan

Quite an atmospheric dawn landscape presented here! Your fine classical composition grants us an enjoyable view of your beautiful location. Sharpness and exposure are good. Nicely done

The pink sets the mood for an early morning view of the river and mountains. Makes me want to be there watching for sunrise. Great shot.
